Here we go . . .
Incredible. Maritimes drank the Liberal Kool-Ade.
Libs: 70 Con: 81 NDP: 16 BQ: 24
Cons making up some territory, but too little, too late?
CTV projecting Con minority.
99-82 now. Wow. Cons up 22.8% in Quebec.
CBC declares Con minority.
OK, so my prediction was a bit off. I really thought the Tories would do better in the Maritimes.
Still, congratulations to Stephen Harper and his people. If he's as smart a politician as I think he is, he should be able to parley it into a majority in a couple of years.
And so I take my leave for the evening, knowing that the future of this country is looking a good deal brighter tonight.
